Crazy, pregnant & nesting!

I had a dream the other night that I went into labor early and the first thing I thought in my dream was oh no..the baby can't come yet my carpets aren't clean! There are a million other things that are probably more important but for some reason this suck with me. So last night I came home from work with a steam cleaner and I scrubbed and pretreated my carpets and then steam cleaned them! When Jared got home he was shocked and was like "why didn't you wait for me to do them?" And so I explained that I was crazy and had to get them done today for some reason. lol I also have been working on making couch pillows and recovering the dinning room chairs. I have never been so into decorating or cleaning in my life. Hopefully it will all look nice when I'm finished. I'm going to post pictures of the end result! :)

I can't believe I'm 29 weeks today! Time has really been flying. I'm happy to be feeling good again and to get back into a routine. I've gained 16 pounds so far and the baby is moving around more than ever. Just resently the baby has started getting hickups. It's so cute. I'm going to my appointments with the midwives every two weeks now and my birthing classes start soon!

Pay back for not having morning sickness

I got a bad sore throat and was out of commision for over a week! It was totally lame but thankfully I'm finally feeling better. I'm ready to leave Febuary behind and welcome spring and sunshine! I'm feeling optimistic about the rest of this prenancy and I can't believe I'm only about 11-13 more weeks away from meeting my little buddy. Third trimester here we go..I hope the 29th week is a lot nicer than the 28th!

The Baby is moving!

Now that I'm past 26 weeks the baby's kicks and moves have been getting much more noticable. Before it felt like little taps but now sometimes when I look down at my stomach I can see it moving. The other morning I woke up because it felt like the baby was totally spazing out! It was kicking and punching and wiggling all at once. It's such a cool experience and I already feel so bonded to the little guy.

24 weeks at Paradise Cove







You can't beat 75 at the beach at the end of January! We are pretty lucky.

Our little guy!




The 3D ultrasound was insane! It was so cool to see him in there. I love his little foot. The doctor said he was 50% for overall size and weight..his head was 50% and his legs were 75% for length. I guess he'll be long legged just like his momma!

Guessing game!




At our 20 week ultra sound we found out we are having a boy! I was totally shocked but so excited! I wanted to tell our families in a cute way so before the ultrasound I made pink cakes and blue cakes since I didn't know which ones we were going to need and we had our moms cut the cakes to find our the gender. It was so fun and everyone was really excited. It was so crazy finding out the gender and seeing our baby. It definitely made it feel a lot more real.
